1 Introduction

1.1 Overview

TI offers a broad portfolio of high speed (HS) CAN transceivers compatible with the ISO11898-2 high

speed CAN standards. These include 5 V V

only, 3.3 V V

only, 5 V V

with I/O level shifting and

galvanic-isolated CAN transceivers. These CAN transceiver families include product mixes with varying

features such as low-power standby modes with and without wake up, silent modes, loop back, and

diagnostic modes.

TI's CAN EVM helps designers evaluate the operation and performance of various TI CAN transceivers. It

also provides bus termination, bus filtering, and protection concepts. It is easily configured by the

customer for the TCAN10xx, TCAN33x, SN65HVD23x, SN65HVD25x, SN65HVD10x0, and

SN65HVDA54x CAN transceiver families as needed by jumper settings, simple soldering tasks, and

replacement of standard components. A separate EVM is available for the galvanic-isolated CAN

transceiver family.

1.2 CAN EVM

The CAN EVM has simple connections to all necessary pins of the CAN transceiver device, and jumpers

where necessary to provide flexibility for device pin and CAN bus configuration. There are test points

(loops) for all main points where probing is necessary for evaluation such as GND, V

, TXD, RXD,

CANH, CANL, pin 8 (mode pin), or pin 5 (various functions). The EVM supports many options for CAN bus

configuration. It is pre-configured with two 120-Ω resistors that are connected on the bus via jumpers: a

single resistor is used with the EVM as a terminated line end (CAN is defined for 120-Ω impedance

twisted pair cable) or both resistors in parallel for electrical measurements representing the 60-Ω load the

transceiver “sees” in a properly terminated network (that is, 120-Ω termination resistors at both ends of the

cable). If the application requires “split” termination, TVS diodes for protection, or Common Mode (CM)

Choke, the EVM has footprints available for this via customer installation of the desired components.

TCAN Evaluation Module

2 2 EVM Setup and Operation

This section describes the setup and operation of the EVM for parameter performance evaluation.

2.1 Overview and Basic Operation Settings

2.1.1 V

Power Supply (TB1, TP9, or JMP2)

The basic setup of the CAN EVM uses a single power supply required to evaluate standard 5-V or 3.3-V

single-supply transceiver device performance. For single-supply transceivers, connect the 5 V or 3.3 V V

supply to the TB1 jumper header, or the V

and GND test-point loops. The power supplied should meet

the required specification of V

for the transceiver being tested. LED D3 is used to indicate V

presence.

2.1.2 I/O Power Supply V

RXD

or V

(JMP2, JMP6 ,or TP8)

For devices with I/O level shifting, a second supply pin for the I/O or RXD pin is on pin 5 of the transceiver

device. A second power supply is needed to test one of these devices. Connect this power supply via

JMP2, JMP6, or TP8. Install a local buffering and decoupling capacitor at C6 if the EVM is used for one of

these devices.

2.1.3 Main Supply and I/O Header (JMP2)

All key I/O and supply GND functions are brought to this header. It may be used on either interface to test

equipment or a short cable could be made to connect to an existing customer-application board with a

CAN controller.

RXD

header to allow flexibility in using the device with power

supply for I/O on pin 5 of the transceiver

This header is arranged to provide a separate ground for each signal pair (TXD/GND and RXD/GND). If

the EVM is being used with lab equipment, connect separate cables to these main points via simple 2-pin

header connectors. If connecting the board to a processor-based system, connect a single cable with all

power and signals via a 10-pin header cable to this port.

2.1.4 TXD Input (JMP2 or TP1)

The TXD (pin 1) of the transceiver, transmit data is routed to JMP2 and TP1. The signal path to the JMP2

header is pre-installed with a 0-Ω series resistor, R10.

2.1.5 RXD Output (JMP2 or TP7)

The RXD (pin 4) of the transceiver, receive data is routed to JMP2 and TP7. The signal path to the JMP2

header is pre-installed with a 0-Ω series resistor, R13.

TCAN Evaluation Module

2.1.6 MODE Select or Pin 8 (JMP1, JMP2, or TP3)

Pin 8 of the transceiver is normally a mode control pin of the device. Pin 8 of the device is routed to JMP1,

JMP2, and TP7.

2.1.7 MODE - JMP1 Configurations (3-Way Jumper)

If using separate I/O inputs JMP1 is used to configure pin 8 to a pullup to V

or pulldown to GND

configuration. For most devices, when pin 8 is pulled to GND, the device is in “normal” or high speed

mode. R3 is pre-installed with 0-Ω resistor to GND for this purpose. For most devices, when pin 8 is pulled

to V

the device is in a silent or low power standby mode. Devices with slope control mode use the

resistance to ground value to determine the slope of the driver output. R2 is left open for customers who

want to install a resistance to ground and use slope mode.

2.1.8 JMP2 Configuration

Using header JMP2 which assumes all the digital I/O signals, V

, GND are routed to an external system.

Ensure that the MODE (JMP1) jumper settings are not conflicting with signals to JMP2.

2.1.9 TP3 Configuration

This connects directly to device pin 8. Ensure JMP1 configuration is not conflicting if TP3 is used as the

input connection.

2.1.10 Pin 5 (JMP6, JMP2 or TP8)

Pin 5 of the transceiver have various uses depending on the transceiver. Examples are V

REF

, SPLIT, V

RXD

, LBK, EN, AB and No Connect (NC). Pin 5 of the device is routed to JMP6, JMP2 and TP8.

2.1.11 Pin 5 – JMP6 Configurations (4-Way Jumper)

If using separate I/O inputs, JMP6 is used to configure pin 5 to: pullup to V

, pulldown to GND, V

RXD

supply input, or V

REF

or SPLIT termination output.

• V

REF

or SPLIT termination: If the device and application support split termination, set JMP6 to V

common mode) to drive the V

REF

or SPLIT pin common mode stabilizing voltage output to the center

tap of the split termination capacitor. Install these components on the EVM as outlined in the CAN bus

termination section.

• No Connection: If the device and application require no use of pin 5, leave it open. If the device has

the V

REF

or SPLIT pin but the application is not using the pin for split termination then add a capacitor

on C6 to improve EMC performance.

• 2nd Mode or Control Input: if the device and application use pin 5 as a second mode or control pin,

then set JMP6 as either a pullup to V

or pulldown to GND, as necessary.

• I/O and RXD level-shifting supply: if the device and application used with V

or V

RXD

to level shift I/O

pins on the transceiver then set JMP6 to V

RXD

connecting pin 5 of the device to the V

RXD

pin on JMP2.

Install local buffering and bypass capacitor C6.

2.1.12 JMP2 Configuration

Using header JMP2 assumes all the digital I/O signals, V

, and GND are routed to an external system.

Ensure that pin 5 (JMP6) jumper settings are not conflicting with signals to JMP2. For power supply V

RXD

set the jumper to route JMP2 supply input to the transceiver pin.

2.1.13 TP8 Configuration

This connects directly to device pin 5. Ensure JMP6 configuration is not conflicting if TP8 is used as an

input connection.

2.2 Using CAN Bus Load, Termination, and Protection Configurations

The CAN EVM is populated with two 120-Ω power resistors selectable via jumpers between CANH and

CANL. When using one resistor, the EVM is used as a terminated end of a bus. For electrical

measurements to represent the total loading of the bus, use both 120-Ω resistors in parallel to give the

standard 60-Ω load for parametric measurement. The EVM also has footprints for split termination, if

needed for the application. Table 3 summarizes how to use these termination options. If using split

termination, match the resistors. Calculate the common mode filter frequency using: f

= 1 / (2πRC).

Normally, the split capacitance is in the range of 4.7 nF to 100 nF. Keep in mind this is the common-mode

filter frequency, not a differential filter that impacts the differential CAN signal directly.

2.3 Using Customer Installable I/O Options for Current Limiting, Pullup and Pulldown,

Noise Filtering

The CAN EVM has footprints on the PCB for the installation of various filtering and protection options to

adapt the EVM to match CAN network topology requirements if the EVM is being used as a CAN node.

Each digital input or output pin has footprints allowing for series current-limiting resistors (default

populated with 0 Ω), pullup or down resistors (depending on pin use), and a capacitor to GND which

allows for RC filters when configured with a series resistor. Table 5 lists these features for each of the

digital input and output pins of the EVM. Replace or populate the RC components as necessary for the

application.
